Peter “Dhewa”
Moyo has opened up on the reasons Miniehle Mukweli, his father’s widow, moved
out of their rented home in Msasa, Kwekwe.
The firebrand
Utakataka Express boss said Miniehle failed to stay true to the traditional custom
of staying single for a year before moving on. He said she moved out of her own
volition because she felt that a year would be too long a time for her to wait
until she hooked up with someone.
Peter said
Miniehle had made it clear during the family meetings soon after Tongai Moyo’s
burial in Sesombe last year that she would be unable to mourn for a year since
she is young and willing to move on.
“Soon after
the burial, my mother said she was only 26 years old and thus could not stay
single for a whole year. She said she had been faithful to Tongai and stayed
true to him during the most desperate of times, but could not continue to be
punished even after his death,” said Peter.
The Young
Igwe, as Peter is affectionately known by his legion of fans, said he believed
Miniehle realised that she was putting all the children in a difficult spot,
including himself as the eldest son and bread winner, by continuing to stay
with them.
Efforts to get a comment from Miniehle, known
as “Ndiro Yababa” after one of Dhewa’s songs, were fruitless as her mobile
phone was unreachable.
However, the
young widow did not give reasons for leaving home when earlier contacted.
“Who gave you
my number? Ask Peter, maybe he might know if they kicked me out of the house.
What I know is that I moved out peacefully. We are in good books,” she was
quoted as saying in a local publication.
...''if u ask me, na who i go ask...the matter wey u see so, e heavy for mouth''....no comment!
Which kin culture?...abeg free d woman sharply.
